About the artist

Larry Coryell

LARRY CORYELL: The Jazz Fusion Pioneer Who Shredded his Way into our Hearts With a career spanning over five decades, Larry Coryell has solidified his place as one of the most influential guitarists in the history of jazz fusion. Hailed as the "Godfather of Fusion," Coryell's innovative blend of jazz, rock, and blues has captivated audiences across the globe. Born in Galveston, Texas in 1943, Coryell's musical journey began at an early age. He honed his skills playing in various local bands before eventually moving to New York City in the 1960s to pursue his passion for music. It was there that he quickly made a name for himself, establishing collaborations with the likes of Chico Hamilton and Gary Burton. Coryell's distinctive playing style, marked by lightning-fast licks and soulful melodies, set him apart from his contemporaries. His groundbreaking albums such as "Spaces" and "The Eleventh House" showcased his virtuosity and creativity, earning him critical acclaim and a dedicated fanbase. Despite his immense talent, Coryell remained modest and approachable, always willing to share his knowledge and passion for music with others. His down-to-earth demeanor and quirky sense of humour endeared him to fans and colleagues alike, making him a beloved figure in the music industry. Sadly, Coryell passed away in 2017, leaving behind a rich legacy that continues to inspire musicians and music lovers to this day. His impact on the world of jazz fusion cannot be overstated, and his innovative spirit will forever be cherished by those who had the pleasure of experiencing his music. Larry Coryell may be gone, but his music lives on, reminding us all to keep pushing boundaries and embracing the unexpected.
